was. but the opposition says they have the claim to defending the country from the majority government. one quite says he intends to act as interim president only until new and fair elections can be held. member states of what's called the lima group a platform of south and north american nations have been commenting on the venezuelan crisis eleven of the fourteen nation group have come out in support of the opposition leader here's what some of them had to say i want to express that colombia recognizes one goal i do as president of venezuela and supports this transition process towards democracy so the venezuelan people are liberated from dictatorship. but i can. send you had a. note i have recognized why and why go as venezuelan president. you with brazil together with all other countries comprising that

lima group which are recognizing this fact we will give full political support to take this process to an end to this year so let me say on behalf of canada that we recognize and express our full support for the interim presidency of venezuela assumed by the president of the national assembly for one guy though in compliance with the constitution of venezuela and we the members of the lima group are preparing a fuller written statement which we hope will come out very soon it's an important day for venezuela and i'm grateful for the solidarity of the lima group in speaking out on this. three of the states in the group that's mexico guyana and st lucia have not supported the joint declaration in favor of. it and president for the very latest let's go to do the obvious oscar lanka on the line from caracas osca what is

the situation right now. well we did get reports of violent protests from looting in several areas around the capital and in other states but just like we've seen on monday and tuesday he wants my starting protests develop in the month of caucus and this is something we have never do before because they have been traditionally thomas and the little strongholds that are now being violently repressed there have been at least fifty protesters killed in the past two days that these protests started so after the enormous protests yesterday that gathered under to balance not only in qatar to vote another city to swell people are still discontent and company to protest at home afterwards and unfortunately that's when most of the violence occurs when the u.s. is visiting this one but i do as the new interim leader with russia is supporting president nicolas maduro how will this confrontation impact events in venezuela.

well it's not surprising that russia and china get their support from other little a few months ago the defense minister paraded two russian bombers given to inflame and it's just the pitch or russia like china cuba have important economic interest in venezuela as economic crisis grows these countries became been it's one of benefactors and main trade partners supporting chavez and now i'm a little politically has been a bargain for exporting oil and mining in the amazon basin so their interest would be put in jeopardy with the new government what we see now is a diplomatic standoff between these countries the difference this time is how much they can support a country in turmoil as well as we're doing today because a look at the chat about diplomacy but the actual situation of an it's well it's deplorable and that is why we've seen a rise of protest and the huge crowds the protests against my little yesterday it's evident that this will not be any country to govern peacefully in the coming months and that also affects russia's in chinese investment in berlin swagger and also

what about the rule of the army in venezuela any indication who they are supporting invesco moyes. well of the hyde military. officials are supporting my daughter and a lot of them have economic interests and political interest in the country as well the issue i spoke with them had a military ranks is that they are being investigated in federal crimes against human rights so they have. interest in supporting a little however the defense minister yesterday announced that support from other would on a tweet not on a formal. event as we are expecting today to hear from him so that leaves a lot of questions to people as to where the military is one. in their support this goes to one of the military will be key in resulting this come six v.w. sort of funding especially in caracas thank you very much.

the events in venezuela could overshadow the pope's visit to nearby panama one of the countries which has recognized the new interim leader the pontiff isn't panama to set a bit world youth day with some two hundred thousand young washed present specter to attend he is he will deliver a message of compassion and human rights to the faithful and nothing america and speak in defense of migrants i. have everything for a glimpse of the first latin american pope. on the boulevards of panama capital s. and c. only excitement was palpable. which i will see off of the nation it's my first time seeing the pope so close it's such a great experience i feel blessed with a fifty three up and i feel great happiness it's really great that everyone is on the streets and people from abroad are here all the cultural share

a common space so it's really good food as i see anywhere i can see it then we're being. told francis is here in panama to preside over world youth day the catholic church's yearly celebration that's brought an estimated one hundred fifty thousand participants from around the world. but the focus will likely be on the entire region francis has previously spoken of the plight of central american migrants and human rights have been a major theme of his papacy meanwhile the political crisis in venezuela is escalating with instability possibly driving even more people to leave that country in the coming days according to the w.'s latin american correspondent francis will also talk about the migration crisis from venezuela and the political crisis in nicaragua young people from those two countries have come here to panama to hear some words of encouragement from francis i for many here though his presence transcends politics oh. well v.m.

nations are in disarray. it's a brief moment but of joy of fulfillment of having our pope that he has lost an american and thinks and talks like us i feel he is very close and parts of my life lots of american hours. francis will officially open the world youth day later on thursday. and now for a look at some other stories making news around the wild china's foreign ministry says it's detained a chinese australian writer on national security charges young hundred who was living in new york was detained after flying to china last week rights groups say critics of the ruling communist party are often charged with espionage without proper evidence german foreign minister heikal moss has met a u.s. secretary of state a mike pale has been begins its new two year tenure on the united nations security

states that they will not just throw further concessions on the table because it would simply threaten the integrity of the internal market if you want as a third country which the u.k. would become all the benefits you also have to take the up again they come pack and parcel and you can't just cherry pick how is that michelle obama is expected in berlin today or will the german chancellor back his position the foreign minister have been saying in recent days that it is up to the great up to great britain up to the british government and the british parliament to put a positive proposal on the table they have so far been criticized for refusing all the deals that have been offered but have not really been able to formulate a viable alternative and. the foreign minister has been saying in recent days the days the ball is in the court of the of the british government and the british

parliament that side has to make a proposal how to get out of this impasse i think from the german side this front of the twenty seven e.u. members has just been talking about it will remain in movable. that is being very firm on its position on the brakes that issue but ghana do nothing to head today's that me out of this impasse. i think han's exact described it exactly as it is the feeling of brussels is britain has mainly negotiated with itself and so even if brussels or the e.u. the e.u. twenty seven member states would be ready to throw further concessions for instance on the controversial backstop of the insurance that there will be no hard border between the republic of ireland the northern ireland even if they would say look ok let's let's put a time limit on that something that is unthinkable at the moment the feeling is even that wouldn't help because it is the backstop sets. the e.u. and the u.k.

electric cars and i think it's ruled by a very positive sentiment about it we will see many electric cars on the road starting twenty twenty all over the world are in many countries of the. i would say even that charging there will be the in a few years time also worldwide the biggest constraints might be better respect to resales because investment being necessary there is huge and the only have. basically sri asian relevant suppliers three four asian relevant suppliers so to heaven the european competitor. be very beneficial for the whole industry so i fully support the effort and what is necessary so that it can back because you are saying it's they extend south so who's making the investment you know it's it is a lot of investment. on the other hand i visited startups in china five years

a smartphone on wheels an internet device so we have to invest a lot in software skills in software development in platforms there's probably the next wave which we have to initiate it will be my major task in two thousand and nineteen and then on the horizon then it comes to autonomy striving to the next generation of cars of mobility it's also requires additional investment so it's an interesting industry for the moment would you say the german automotive industry is looking a bit behind now you know not not necessarily and not in all areas we are still dominating in the. in the premium car segment a real wide. we have. very strong in very negative markets like china the have been gaining market even last year with the market was declining so be not weak but the question is obvious fost enough in the change to the into the new
